Hacker News "Who is hiring?" thread (freelancer), September 2011

by: Skroob
text: Remote only<p>iOS/Cocoa Touch<p>I'm an indie developer, and my workload is outpacing number of hours in the day. I'm looking for a freelance iOS developer to help take some of the work off my shoulders. 
I'd like to do a set number of hours per month, not too many so a nights-and-weekends deal would be okay.<p>Experience in iPad and iPhone development, Cocoa Touch, UIKit, Xcode, and so on. I need someone who is experienced enough to have shipped an app, either direct to the app store, or to a client. You need to be able to hit the ground running. Also, I use Git for VCS and Lighthouse for bug tracking, so experience with either of those is a plus. Experience consuming web services via REST, and experience parsing JSON and XML responses is a big plus as well.<p>Please email your experience (and a resume if you'd like) to info@pocketsevens.net. Just tell me about yourself and the work you've done. Links are helpful too. Thanks!
